Thanks you all for the helpful information. I'll check out these sets. Have a great day.

Project Brush Set 20 Pattern Brush Sets 
Updated the brush set to version 2
Changes/improvements as below
Version 2.0
1. Removed old versions redundant now..
2. All nozzles are now vector based replacing previous raster versions (as much as possible)
3. Replaced some of the older Base Patterns with some organics (set 04)
4. The old brush set was appearing darker and less intense with 1.7/1.8 update...I have fixed that with this version!
5. Updated the Sample sheets to latest layout (included ref to updated/new patterns).
6. Organised the sets into groups of 30 (Group 01 x4)
7. Added a generic set of brush Nozzles for texture variation (These are repeated across all sets)

I am posting another set of custom Textured intensity brushes for Affinity Designer:
Textured pack E3 water - Intensity brushes (zip file - 9+mb)
 
These are recreations of an original default set of water (Sumi ink) style brushes that came with the application Expression3 from the early 2000’s.
These are more for fun than practical brushes.
The default set sold me on E3 way back in the day - a HUGE shift from the very solid vector look of other vector applications of the time. Having a bitmap texture mapped to a vector skeleton = magic!
These were originally meant I am sure as emulation of wet (and dryish) ink/brush strokes - but tended to be a little too limited to that look. Nevertheless they do make for some nice smokey brush strokes and have quite a bit of texture.
 
Example images of the strokes are attached here.
Hope the user base here finds this third set interesting.
 

Hey guys,
 
Just bought Affinity Photo and since there's no Opacity + Flow pressure sensitivity options, I've pulled a rabbit out of a hat and starting off with some tips from this thread I've made some brushes and thought of sharing them with the nice people on these forums. The last in the list I think are especially useful for paiting. Hope you'll like them.

Hi Gonzo
I'd also recommend checking out the resources section of our forums, as many users share their custom brushes for free!
I hope this helps!

I like Jef’s brushes, but if you want to decide for yourself there’s a free sample set: https://gum.co/rLZqV

That worked! Thanks so much!
